Goodbye my lover.
"You're staying with her?" Meredith hated to say that.
"She's my wife." Derek said. Meredith swallowed back tears.
"Ok" Meredith walked out of the room to get changed out of her scrubs and go home. She held he head up high as she walked past Addison Sheppard. She never really hated her. But she hated her now. As she pulled up into her driveway and opened the front door, that's when the tears came she cried and cried and cried for she didn't know how long until she felt someone trying to open the door. She hopped up and stepped back from the door to see Izzie standing there.
"Mer what's-" Izzie started but Meredith interrupted her.
"He's staying with her."
"Oh Mer." Izzie hugged her friend and listened to her break down.
"He's staying with her. He chose her. I thought…I thought… he cared for me."
"Come on." Izzie ushered Meredith into the kitchen. Meredith watched her friend as she baked cookies for her in silence. Izzie took such care when she baked. There silence was interrupted when George burst into the kitchen.
"I just saw Addison and Derek leaving together from the hostp- Owww Izzie what you do that for?" Izzie had thrown the spoon she was holding at George and hit him in the head. George now saw Meredith sitting at the table with fresh tears rolling down her face. "OH shit Mer I'm sorry." George went over and hugged her.
"Maybe you should take the day off tomorrow, say you sick." Izzie suggested.
"No. This will be the only time I will cry. Tomorrow is just another day I'm going to pretend I never dated him I'm not going to talk to him unless its about work. I have to be strong, I'm not letting then get the better of me."
"That's the spirit Mer!" George exclaimed. Meredith grabbed the whole tray of chocolate cookies and went up stairs to bed. She walked into her room and automatically started putting his things in a box and spraying deodorant everywhere to get rid of his smell.
Tomorrow is just another day she thought. Just another day.
